Did you ever see a man in red net news news's october 29th life who screamed about headaches, stomach pains, or chest boredom, ran through hospitals, specialties, stomach mirrors, cts, etc., and showed that he was not ill? Families and friends may feel that the patient “thinks too much”, but the person in question really suffers from physical pain. In fact, it is likely that the patients are “injured” and that they are likely to suffer from a particular psycho-related disease — a form of physicalization disorder。
Mr. Zhang, aged 45, has suffered from stomach pain for three years. In the last three years, he had changed hospitals and performed stomach glasses four times, all of which showed “light stomachitis, no apparent anomaly”. The doctor prescribed an abdominal medication, but his stomach pain was still good and bad, especially after busy work and quarrels with his family, which could be particularly severe and could not even work normally。
Subsequently, at the suggestion of a friend, mr. Zhang went to the 2nd people's hospital in hunan province (hunan province brain hospital) for a psychiatric (male) clinic for his body. In a careful examination of his medical history, combined with his clinical performance, the chief of the section found that his stomach pains were closely related to long-term psychological stress and were consistent with the diagnosis of a physical form disorder。
Dr. Domley developed a personalized treatment programme for him, first, through cognitive behaviour therapy, to help him learn to recognize the connection between emotional and stomach pains and to adjust excessive attention to symptoms; and, secondly, to teach him emotional management skills, to release stress through meditation, sports, etc., and to speak and communicate with his family in a timely manner about work and life problems. At the same time, he was treated with a small amount of anti-anxiety medication. After three months of treatment, mr. Zhang's stomach pains were clearly abated, he was no longer treated frequently, and his emotions became much more open and he regained self-confidence in his work and life. So, what's the physical form barrier
Infirmity is closely related to mental state
Tomley explains that, in simple terms, the formal barriers to bodyization are a series of symptoms of stress, emotional problems manifested through physical discomfort. Patient body discomfort is real and is not “loading” “correction” or “thinking too much”, but the symptoms are not accompanied by a clear body mass pathologies and the core causes are often closely related to mental state。
There are several typical characteristics of this type of disease, namely, the recurrence of body symptoms, which may involve multiple systems, such as digestion, breathing, muscle, bones, etc.; the frequent medical attention to symptoms and the lack of acceptance of the results of the examination, which is always perceived to have been missed by the doctor; and the serious impact of these symptoms on normal life, work or socialization, which may be associated with emotional problems such as anxiety and depression. Many would have mistakenly thought it was a normal “psychological effect” and even the patient would have been confused: “why can't he find out? In fact, domley says that this is because our bodies, our hearts, are so closely connected that long-term depressions are like “floods”, which, when psychologically unbearable, look for the “exit” of the body, in the form of pain and discomfort。
What are the manifestations of the physical form barrier
Symptoms of physical form disorders vary from one system to another, and these are common, such as digestive systems, where there are recurring stomach pains, abdominal swelling, nausea, diarrhoea or eating disorders, with many people mistaken for stomach and enteritis, repeated gastroscopes and intestinal lenses without detection. There are also musculoskeletal and neurological systems, neck back pains, joint acid pains, headaches, and symptoms such as numbness of hands and feet, lack of strength, which can be treated as cervical vertebrates, migraine headaches and are not effective. Respiratory and cardiovascular systems, dysentery, short-temporal, “fast breathing”, or always feel uncomfortable with the heart, symptoms similar to cpr, but tests of electrocardiograms, cardiac colours, etc. Indicate normality. Other symptoms, such as skin itching, hair loss, menstruation, and even urination frequency, urination, etc., also lack clear organogenic causes。
In addition to physical symptoms, tanglie described typical behaviour patterns of patients, such as carrying drugs with them, changing hospitals and doctors frequently, being particularly sensitive to their symptoms, a slight discomfort creates anxiety, and attention is almost completely occupied by physical feelings。
What are the causes of the physical form disorder
Why is this “physical and mental disease” happening? The causes of a physical form of impairment are complex and are usually the result of a combination of psychological, physical, social and other factors, the core of which is that a patient may be induced by a chronic state of work or economic stress, a traumatic event, his or her own trend towards perfection and excessive attention to his or her health. In addition, biological factors, each individual's nervous system is sensitive, and some people's nerves are particularly sensitive to their internal feelings and are more likely to capture minor discomfort and thus magnify them, as well as endocrine-regulating disorders, which can also be a contributing factor。
In addition, lack of awareness of mental illness, lack of professional assistance in emotional problems or lack of understanding and support from family and friends can be symptoms of or aggravating physical forms of decomposition。
How to identify and respond? Remember those
The first is self-identification of small signals: vigilance is required if the body's symptoms meet the following conditions. The first is that the infirmity lasts for more than six months, but repeated examinations do not lead to a clear cause of bodily disease; the second is that the appearance or exacerbation of symptoms always coincides with emotional fluctuations, stress events; and the third is that the symptoms cause a clear anxiety or have affected normal life。
Second, be careful with the scientific response. Don't take a turn. In the event of physical discomfort, the symptoms are clearly present in digestive, respiratory, osteoporosis, etc., and it is recommended that medical consultations be conducted in the psychiatric, psychiatric or psycho-psychiatric sciences, that a medical specialist be consulted for an assessment and diagnosis, and that a psychiatric specialist be treated in the event of a physical form disorder。
Patients themselves can learn to adjust and release their emotions. They can share their thoughts with their families and friends, develop their passions, maintain their regularity, and adjust their perceptions to reduce excessive attention to physical symptoms. Establishing regularity and ensuring adequate sleep also helps to improve the patient's physical and mental state。
